Hey Wim,

I'm pretty wide awake, so I'll listen right now

Nice snare - tons of attitude in that.

This has soo much forward momentum.. every sound is carrying the song forward.

On first listen the chord changes seem a bit random, a little difficult to follow. Once in the breakdown, the chord changes start to make more sense, and there is a melodic flow.

Your sounds, synths, percs, mastering and more are top notch - some of the best sounding I've heard in this forum. However, the melody (in my opinion) is quite generic... feels like something I've heard in other trance songs many times.

You've got incredible production skills - I'm amazingly impressed. I think there's room for improvement in regards to creating unique melodies and song structure.

Thanks for sharing and keep up the superb work,
Trev

this one has the typical Icone sound with some nice Outback-style fx didn't like very much that sub-bass you used..the melody is rather generic as sooper said, but everything else is really great.

however I still think The Way Home is your best work

Hey Icone,

I was expecting more from this track. The energy in it is great as in all of your tracks but the bass in the build up has some weird changes that needed getting used to. Also the build up sounds hasty and a bit thin. The guitarish riff in the second part of the track however is excellent.

The break is quite nice, reminds me a bit of myself haha. I am a fan of big string breaks and you deliver exactly that even though the melody is not that special and the break itself sounds a bit empty. The lead sound is also very generic (which is not a complaint, just stating a fact )but it does its job.

Overall the track is good because of its energy but nothing more than that. The last couple of tracks by you hade a lot more depth and had better melodies.

Cheers and keep it up mate.

thanks for the comments

Hey,
First, thanks for a full track in HQ mate .
I will not comment on Trance because I sux producing it lol, but in my Trance rookie ears this sounds really cool, mastering is very good, build up and break are a bit generic and they lack of some intensity imo, release is really nice! My prefered part no doubt, great job man, quality stuff as usual but lacks of feeling for me .
Kopi =o.

I`d say I generally agree with the above comments, mastering and sounds are pretty good as usual, but the melody felt kinda "bleh". I've heard some amazing stuff by you before, so I was a little disapointed.. but it's still some pretty good work.

Finally shared it then Wim!

I have to go against grain on this one! As you have known for a while I am totally in love with this track! Just that perfect intense bassline pattern during the intro, keeps me hanging on! Don’t know how people can be disappointed with a track like this! It certainly adds some freshness to a now lame trance genre! If it isn’t averagely produced by John “little and often” O’ Callaghan and his other bum producer colleagues then you don’t hear it!

I just wish you the best with your recent signing's and hope for more like this!

All the best mate!

Steve

i like it! thanks for sharing it.
